If you don't have those options you may need new drivers installed on your Vaio. Do you have windows xp? The driver can be found here: support.vaio.sony.co.uk/downloads/info/info.asp?site=voe_en_GB_cons&url=Vaio/Original/AR2_Drivers.zip&ip=RAID_AR21.htm

If you have vista the driver can be found here:

On the television make sure you are on the right input. Press menu--setup--hdmi setup--audio select--digital

Call a local custom audio/video installer that can help you for a small fee. It's okay to pay a professional and get the right help. It shouldn't cost you more than $50 at most, but probably half that amount since it's a very simple connection.

Is it slow and blurry? if yes then return it to warranty immediately. The video processing circuits are
malfunctioning and the repair cost is prohibitive if you must pay for
it on your own.

I hope it is still under warranty. So, do not delay getting it into
the Sharp Authorized facility or back to the retailer you purchased
it from.

The connection cable you use could have something to do with it, but is
should work on all formats. The best for reliability and absence of
blocking is just analog composite - but that is also the lowest picture
resolution. S-video is okey too, but it is analog as well. Component
is the highest grade; going to hdmi is just another way of receiving
the signal - I don't think it will effect the error correction problem
in any way. My opinion.

Use the HDMI cable on the Roku. The reason you don't have audio from the laptop is because the HDMI out on the laptop has no audio on it. You need to use a 3.5 mm audio cable to connect the laptop audio to the TV.

If this is the exact model Sharp Aquos television you have then you would have to have a laptop that has hdmi or dvi. You can try S Video on a laptop but the laptop's resolution would have to be so low that most laptops cannot accommodate this. You're right; this television does not have a VGA (RGB cable) input.

Your PS3 set itself above the max resolution your LC-C3237U. Most likely the PS3 is doing 1080P, but the highest the Sharp can do is 1080i. So do this:

1. Connect PS3 to TV (you can use the current cable or analog cable)
2. Turn on TV and set input to port PS3 is on. 3. Make sure PS3 is connected via correct cable.4. Power on PS3 via power button and HOLD IT for 5 seconds (release after the second beep). It should automatically configure your PS3 to the TV's native resolution for all settings.

I have a similar problem. The Sharp TV aquos appears to be shutting down my blue ray player and dvd recorder when connected via HDMI. They work fine and never close down when I connect them via the rca cables either single video connection or a composite 3 cable rca lead. I have 3 HDMI inputs on the tv and the problem occurs on all 3. Any suggestions?

Your TV doesn't like your laptop I guess.
There should be 2 reset buttons behind your TV.
Press the reset button first.
If that doesn't work, try the system reset button next.
If that doesn't work, you'll have to call 1-800-BE-SHARP to help you with the possible software problem with the TV
Good Luck
